Installation
Avira GmbH
Avira AntiVir UNIX Server

The procedure is described, so that you do not need expert knowledge to perform it.
Nevertheless, knowledge of UNIX kernel compilation is needed, especially when errors
are encountered. Further information on this can be found at:

Compiling Dazuko
3
Make sure that the source code for UNIX kernel is in
/usr/src/linux
. If not, install it
there. Information on this subject can be found in your UNIX provider
documentation.
3
Check if you have on your computer the kernel compiling programs (for example gcc).
This also applies to UNIX standard installations. If not, install the required packages.
Information on this subject can be found in your UNIX provider documentation.
3
Your UNIX kernel must be based on the source code from
/usr/src/linux,
as in most
cases, especially in a UNIX reinstallation. You can only be absolutely certain by
recompiling the installed kernel using exactly these sources.
Go to the temporary directory where you unpacked Dazuko, for example:
cd /tmp/antivir-server-prof-<version>/contrib/dazuko/
dazuko-<version>
Check the configuration of your computer with the configure script. Based on this
information, it will provide appropriate guidance for further installation of the
software:
./configure
Compile Dazuko:
make
Optionally: verify if the newly installed module works with the computer's running
kernel:
make test
If your distribution supplier offers an exact matching module to your
kernel:
Skip the following step.
Check the name of the module on the system (you might use this
information for further installation of AntiVir Guard). Use the
following command:
find /lib/modules/‘uname -r‘ -name ’dazuko*’
The installation pack for SunOS (Sparc and i386) contains a binary
module and you do not have to install it on this platform yourself.
If you are not certain about your UNIX kernel status, you should
proceed with the installation. In the worst case, Dazuko will not be
integrated into your UNIX kernel and the AntiVir Guard will not
start. A message will be displayed and you can solve the situation
afterwards.
